Empire: My Bad Parts Review

“My Bad Parts” shows Empire continuing to struggle with consistency in its second season.

This Empire review contains spoilers.

Empire Season 2 Episode 8

IsEmpiregood?

Last week, I embraced the crazy.

With an open heart, I praised Lucious playing the sitar along to the worlds best-worst song ever made!

I think I gave the episode four stars!

This week, I feel the exact opposite aboutEmpire.

Is it just me?

Surprise pregnancies have been done to death.

Long-lost sisters, even if a more-than-game Vivica A.

Fox plays them, are tired in this territory.

Yep, I really dont care that Anika is carrying Hakeems child.

For starters, Anika has never been interesting.

And thats all Ive got, because this was a particularly uneventful episode ofEmpire.

It feels even less essential than all of the repetitive family drama.

Im not sure whatEmpireneeds to get back on track, but it has to start being unpredictable again.

Rating:

2.5 out of 5
